What kind of springs?I think If I get the rims they will rub and bump my fenders because they will stick out.

what do you guys think? how far do you think they will stick out?

I have them also.I just don't know if I would rub on my fenders with the 16x8 +0 offsett.I think they would stick out and when I hit a bump they would rub and dent my fenders.

Then dont pull them just roll them. And yes with good camber they do, but I have neg camber in the rear to fit them.

So just roll the inner fender lip flush with the fender? and they should be fine? I'm just wondering because if they stick out like a inch or so, then when I hit a bump or something I dont want my tires jaming into my fenders.

On his car they stick out like a inch and he has stock suspension.So what would it be like on mine? Would they still be sticking an inch or more?

Well, it all depends on tires and such, but they should fit flush and fine on a stock body, if they hit, either start pulling your fenders or add neg camber. your choice.

front tires are 205/55/16 rears are 215/55/16 I know the rear tires are way to big, and will most likely rub.

I don't have rucas to camber in the tires.

Well today my father, brother in law and I tried to address the the problem that came up recently. My right headlight does not work. We have tried almost everything, the bulb is good we get power through the plug but when we connect the bulb to the harness plug it reads there is no power.We have been testing relays, fuses everything we can but it still does not work, does anyone know anything that could be wrong?Thanks.

You probably already tried this. I would check the switch and follow the wires down to the light itself and see if you have any breaks or odd spots. Then cut um re tie um and tape um up lolz. I had a problem like this with my tail lights/running lights a while ago.

I just turned 16 to and my dad gave me his old 240 for my birthday last week so I'll be starting a build as soon as i get a job lolz.

NICE THREAD!!! car is solid
